Virgil -
Most likely it is a bug in AbiWord and I appreciate your submitting it,
but I have not been able to reproduce it. Can you provide any more
information ( font this occurs with (ATM or TTF) - or sample document ).
Anything more to help me track down this errant behavior and correct it.
This is a nasty bug that should be squashed before the 1.0 release and I
will focus on it especially once I can reproduce it locally.
Thanks for your response.
Cheers!
